Objective :
Smart door bell is an automation of the traditional door bell. With new
system, door switch will be replaced with the motion sensor which will give
alert even of person on door step without using the switch.
This small level of automation will improve safety and changes are very
small as switch is replaced by sensor , which will not affect the asthmatics
and simple in structure will encourage the people to move towards home
automation on broader scale.

Project Scope:

To build the smart door bell system for domestic

purpose within affordable range (< Rs. 2000/-).

Business Impacted:

Home automation.

Traditional

Analysis of a Problem:
In the traditional door bell ,the visitor needs to operate the door bell switch
to give an indication.

Traditional bell

Project Scope: To build the smart door bell system for domestic
purpose within affordable range (< Rs. 2000/-).
Step 2:
Business Impacted: Home automation.

Analysis of the Problem:

In the traditional door bell had below

limitations
1.Bell button damaged after prolonged use
need replacement.
2.Can cause electric shock.
3.Children cannot reach to the switch

Automated Bell

Step 3:
Specifications of Specification:
1. Object to detect human being.
2. Range for detection - 2 mtrs
3. Duration of detection - Both day and night time.
4. Output desired Sound and Flash light

Step 4:
Generation of possible solutions:
1. Photodiode sensed Door Bell
2. Infrared sensed Door Bell
3. Ultrasonic sensed Door Bell

Step 5:
Selection of possible solution:
1. PIR based Door Bell is selected for the below advantage over

the other 2
1. PIR stands for Passive Infra-Red Sensor. This sensor
can detect the human presences during day and night

Limitations:
Difficult to mount the PIR sensor. It cover wide angle of detection. So
need to cover the motion sensor area to limit the detection area
Sensitivity of PIR sensor is high so care has to be taken while
installations and handling.
Future Scope:
System should stop after the door is opened.
Provision to restrict the detection of PIR sensor.
